Confession

Run away Don’t follow a ghost She doesn’t know where she’s heading Back away Don’t follow a sinner She doesn’t know what’s worth dreading She has one broken heart A screwed up head Doesn’t know where to start Can’t find an end Her last words Spoken with grace I don’t know where to go Heaven won’t accept me The stars can’t reach me I made my fair share of mistakes Running with the wrong crowd Silence instead of speaking out Lost my conscience on the way Now my hearts missing Body full of bullet holes.

Good morning Paige another powerful poem straight from the heart. Now let me say this we are all sinners and every single one of us has made mistakes. But when we trust Jesus he wipes away our sins wipes away our mistakes and opens heavens gates and welcomes us in with open arms so you see heaven does want you.

Don't be so hard on yourself:) Confessing comes before forgiveness. Now you get to start all over. This time don't run with the pack! I like this poem because it feels authentic.

Perhaps the wrong word. Realistic maybe? truthful? No made up it is from you're actual life.
